Friday, October 10th, The Alternative Board Members and I met with CBS Channel 5 at Carson Poetzl architects to discuss how the economy is affecting them and how meeting together has helped them better handle these difficult times. CBS 5 - Business Owners Helping Business Owners . The actual filming went on for over an hour. The news clip makes some good points, but there were some really great comments and ideas from Clark Worthley -Case Remodeling, Alfred Gregory-Summit, Andrew Carson-Carson Poetzl, Laura Bramnick-Dreim, and Bob Reichard-Dreim, which were not included in this shortened version. A quick summary of the points made:
1. Stay Positive 2. Watch your cash more closely then ever before. 3. Planning is imperative 4. Increase your efforts in selling and marketing 5. Keep your employees informed and involved. 6. Get ideas and support from the Alternative Board 7. No matter years you have been in business, there is always something new to learn.
If you want to learn more, I would be happy to discuss this on a one to one basis. Please e-mail me or call 480-656-3565
